I recently purchased this app but very useful features are missing, I would like you to add
1. Pause and unpause button for screen recording
2. Add some most used screen window sizes such as 1920x1080 , 1280x720 and add window where we can enter values like custom window sizes,
3. Functionality where we can use other apps to resize according to window , suppose I am recoding a video in power point and I want to record in 1920x1080 resolution but after selecting the recording window I am not able to move or do any thing on my powerpoint app to make it fit into recording window, I am not using ppt in slideshow mode . and this is really frustrating If you want to know What I am taking about You can take look into Camtasia recording software in it when you have have selected recoding window you can adjust or resize background apps before recording starts, so this help in perfect recording and resolution. Thank You!
Deskeen 2 — We’ve reimagined screen capture.
Taking daily screenshots, recording your screen, and organizing materials takes far more time than you might think. Existing tools often offer only partial functionality—or require you to hop between multiple apps. Deskeen was born out of this very inconvenience.
The reason you need this app is simple: it brings the entire process of capturing, organizing, and retrieving your screen content into one seamless workflow. No complicated shortcuts. No digging through endless folders. Just instant access to exactly what you need, the moment you need it.
As a result, you can collect resources faster, manage them more neatly, and share them more securely. Deskeen 2 is not just another capture tool—it’s a productivity platform that reimagines your entire workspace.
In particular, Deskeen 2 introduces Screen Annotation, a new feature that transforms your Mac’s display into a creative canvas. Naturally, it’s fully integrated with both capture and screen recording functions, and includes Scrolling Capture, which is perfect for grabbing long or continuous content.
It also comes with the remarkable Page Capture feature, which automatically captures any content you specify—whether it’s ePub files, webcomics, manga, or anything visible on your screen—and turns it into images, animated GIFs, or PDFs.
This is why Deskeen 2 isn’t simply a tool for “taking” screens, but the starting point for completely redesigning your workflow. It’s a small beginning, but one we’ll continue to strengthen and grow—always by your side. We look forward to your support as we move ahead.
